If you have the chance check out the new Kimber 'Solo'. I don't own one myself but, I had the chance to play with one at the local store. I don't like striker fired pistols normally, I've shot 1911's far too long to fall in love with the long trigger pull.
That being said, the trigger on the Solo was smooth as silk and not heavy at all. If I was in the market for a slim 9mm, the Solo would be hard to eliminate from the running. The magazine was 6 rounds, which to some is too few, but if the scenario takes more than 6 rounds... carry an extra mag, they're small too.
FWIW
